A spacious, deeply comfortable gathering place

Designed by renowned architect John Pawson, the sustainably focused Pawson Drift Sofa combines exceptional comfort with a refined form, providing a sanctuary for mind and body. Composed of over 80 percent natural materials*, the sofa has plush cushions that sit in a hardwood, architectural frame with a recessed base, creating a floating effect.

Expertly crafted

Craftsmanship, quality, and simplicity are the hallmarks of John Pawson’s designs, whether architecture or furniture. A recessed, solid hardwood frame with expert joinery and a square-edge design make this sofa durable and beautiful. With every inch thoughtfully considered, it’s pleasing from every angle, fitting anywhere in a room.

Sustainably minded

In keeping with our commitment to sustainability, over 80 percent of the sofa is made from natural materials*. The frame is made from North American hardwood, while cushions are made of plant-based latex and rest on a hidden suspension system of textile straps under cotton decking. The result is a more environmentally responsible sofa that still delivers outstanding comfort.

*Natural materials are defined as any product or physical matter that comes from plants, animals, or the ground.
